The Greatest Video Game Comeback Of My Life

“This team sucks,” the Raynor player quipped once again. “I want to quit,” he added a moment later. All I kept hearing was: I have the power to make your life miserable for the next twenty or thirty minutes, and I’m going to. But I wasn’t going to let him. Once the game starts to…

This Rocket League Save Doesn’t Seem Possible

I can only hope to achieve such greatness one day. FutureGrind developer Matt Rix posted a Vine of his spectacular Rocket League save, one that skates along the whole goal before he’s able to push it out and prevent the goal from happening. (You might need to click the Vine to get it moving.) I’d…

Dragon Age: Inquisition’s Lightning Spell Still Kicks Ass

If you slam your staff into the ground so hard that lightning shoots out of it, it should probably feel pretty powerful, you know? I’ve been playing through Dragon Age: Inquisition’s new DLC The Descent, and it’s been nice to come back to the game. I haven’t played Dragon Age in a focused way since…

Are you a professional Counter-Strike or Heroes of the Storm player who likes to, as the kids say, indulge in the reefer?

The second most-surprising thing about Marvel Comics’ big 2015 crossover comic book event is that it’s very good. These epics tend to disappoint, but not this one. The bigger surprise? Even the comics tying into it are mostly really good. That never happens. There are more than three dozen Marvel mini-series that tie into Secret…

Now This Is How You Bait An Opponent In Heroes Of The Storm

When it comes to hand-to-creepy-tentacle-thing combat, Abathur is the weakest character in Heroes of the Storm. But that doesn’t mean he can’t do some serious damage when he’s on the front lines. YouTuber and Abathur player Brian Maum shows us how its done (via Reddit). Take notes, prospective Abathur players: (Note: the two teammates who…

It’s Tough To See Everything On Rocket League’s New Map

Rocket League received its first new map yesterday, and while the layout is similar to previous arenas, it’s got a completely different feel that’s already causing headaches in the pro scene. Here’s a wide look at the new location, Utopia Colosseum: Besides sporting a unique look, there are new sound effects to accompany scores, as…

Maybe Bruce Wayne Can’t Be Batman Anymore

Alfred Pennyworth has finally gotten what he’s been wanting for decades: A Bruce Wayne who he won’t need to stitch up, worry over or be ignored by. Thomas and Martha Wayne’s son isn’t a superhero anymore. And the new Batman comic posits that he can’t be The Dark Knight ever again. Ever since the big…

The Resident Evil 2 Remake Is Officially Happening

“You’ve been telling us for years that you want Resident Evil 2 to be remade,” said Capcom producer Yoshiaki Hirabyashi, “and we haven’t been able to make it happen…until now.” Maybe Capcom took a cue from Square Enix and the response to remaking Final Fantasy VII? Capcom has been teasing a Resident Evil 2 remake…

The Thief Gold HD Texture Mod has hit version 1.0 after a couple years’ development, turning Looking Glass Studios’ 15+ year old stealth-em-up a lot… well, I wouldn’t say prettier, ‘cause Thief’s universe is hardly pretty. But still, those are some impressive visuals. Might try this on my next playthrough. Dayshot is an image-based feature…
